Feedback sought on Omand’s Creek bridge design

The City of Winnipeg is asking the public to weigh in on designs for a new Omand’s Creek pedestrian bridge.

After an initial input phase, the city is releasing a draft of plans to replace the bridge. The current draft design “raises the bridge to help reduce flooding and rebuilds the pathways to improve safety and accessibility for people of all ages and abilities, while respecting (Omand Park’s) natural setting.”

Residents can review the project boards and complete an online survey open until June 14.

People can also speak with the project team in-person at upcoming drop-in events. The first, an Omand Park pop-up event, will be held on Tuesday, June 2 between 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. in Omand Park (corner of Wolseley Avenue and Raglan Road). The second will be held at the Wolseley Farmers Market on Tuesday, June 9 from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. at 160 Ethelbert St.

In case of rain or high winds, please visit the project website for updates.
